Fengyi Palace.
The night is as quiet as water, peaceful and silent, like an impassable road, so dark and so long.
Chu Yeli held Chu Li's hand tightly, leaned in front of the couch, his eyelids dark, and took a tired nap.
On the couch, the woman looked pale and her breathing was shallow.
A tear oozed from the corner of her eye, silently disappeared into her hair, and vanished without a trace...
-
The next day.
This was the third day after the wedding, and also the third day that Chu Li had been in a coma. The atmosphere in Fengyi Palace was shaking with fear, and the most panicked were the Imperial Hospital.
"waste!"
"useless!"
"I support all of you guys just for free!"
There were bursts of sharp noises.
The imperial physician knelt on the ground.
They all lowered their heads, their foreheads soaked with beads of sweat, and they endured the king's wrath, not daring to breathe.
Outside the palace, Tuoba Mingyue came.
He glanced at the imperial doctors on the floor, then looked inside the house and whispered:
"You all step back first."
“This… is, is it.”
The imperial doctors looked into the room cautiously, and were relieved to see that the emperor had no intention of stopping him. "Thank you, Princess."
Tuoba Mingyue entered the house:
"The imperial physician said that this is a mental illness. She is trapped in her own nightmare and doesn't want to wake up. It's useless to embarrass the imperial physician."
Chu Yeli didn’t understand. He was the one who met her first, so why did Chu Dichi become her concern?
Why should the latecomers be ahead?
He rubbed his tired brows, he hadn't slept well for three days and three nights. The wedding dress he wore that day was still on him, it was wrinkled, his eyes were full of black hair, and he looked particularly decadent.
Sitting heavily in front of the bed,
"Xiaojiu, wake up!"
Don’t sleep anymore!
Even a body of iron cannot withstand not taking a drop of water.
After three days, she had lost a lot of weight.
"Wake up soon, don't scare me like this, don't scare me..." He held her soft and weak hand tightly, pressed it hard against his face, and his voice was already filled with tears.
It would be better to wake up and beat him, scold him, get furious, even kill him, than to lie here lifeless.
However, the person on the couch had been sleeping soundly, very quietly, without making any sound.
Tuoba Mingyue saw it all, his eyes somewhat distracted.
If the person lying on the bed was her, would he be so sad?
If possible, she would be willing to pay ten times the price and exchange with Chu Li...
Chu Yeli suddenly looked up, "Will the Gu harm the body?"
"No, she vomited it out."
"really?"
Tuoba Mingyue's eyes darkened slightly.
What does he mean?
"Do you suspect I would take this opportunity to harm her?"
Chu Yeli stared at her for two seconds before looking away calmly, "You've helped me a lot. I owe you a lot, and I'm afraid I'll never be able to repay you in this lifetime."
The anger and indignation that had just risen in Tuoba Mingyue's heart due to being questioned was dispelled by his words.
"If you hadn't come to save me on the night of the capital's seizure of power, I wouldn't be alive today."
He didn't owe her anything.
Moreover, he gave her half of the country as a thank you gift.
But why can't two people who support each other and are friends for life and death be together?
-
The court was suspended for three days and there was civil unrest. The palace was in a state of tight security and the entire imperial capital was in a state of panic.
Attending court, official duties, military affairs, pursuing the regent's remnants... Chu Yeli had forgotten everything. He sank into Fengyi Palace, like being stuck in a quagmire and couldn't pull himself out no matter how hard he tried.
"Xiaojiu...Xiaojiu..."
Every second and every minute is like being roasted on fire, suffering torture.
Finally, he remembered an important matter and stood up:
"Someone, call Chu Aotian over here!"
Chu Aotian and Chu Li have the best relationship, why did he just remember it now?
Worry leads to confusion.
When one is too anxious, even rationality is suppressed.
"Go call someone!"
Soon, Chu Aotian was carried over by two guards, and he was furious all the way: "Let me go... You dare to do this to your grandfather Aotian... You bastard..."
"Go in!"
The guards were fierce, "You must not be rude in front of the emperor."
"What kind of emperor is he!"
Chu Aotian was filled with anger, his eyes were as big as copper bells, "Chu Yeli, you are cruel and ruthless, people like you are destined to lose everything and live a lonely life!"
"Yeah?"
Chu Yeli turned around slowly, looking dignified and cold.
"But the fact is that I got everything, but you can only become a prisoner!"
"you……"
"I asked you to come here today, not to quarrel with you. Come and talk to Xiaojiu and tell her to wake up quickly."
When Chu Aotian saw Chu Li, who was so thin that she was almost skin and bones, he couldn't stop crying.
"Ninth sister!"
His mouth was wide open.
Crying so loudly.
It’s all Chu Yeli’s fault!
When the emperor's uncle was alive, the ninth sister had never been so dying!
Chu Aotian was furious and clenched his fists as big as sandbags. "Chu Yeli, you are such a vicious person, I will fight you!"
"Do you dare to touch me?"
Just as the fist was about to hit Chu Yeli's face, it turned and hit the pillar next to it.
Woohoo!
He is not alive anymore!
What kind of day is this?
"Ninth sister, ninth sister!" She rushed to the bed, sobbing, "Whose ancestral grave did we dig up in our previous life? What sin did we commit to deserve such a disaster!"
This life is unbearable!
"I might as well just twist my neck and go with you..."
Um?
A big hand suddenly pressed coldly on my shoulder, "Do you want to die?"
Chu Aotian felt a chill down his spine:
“I…I was just kidding.”
"Then talk nicely. If she doesn't wake up, your fate will be more than just death."
Chu Aotian trembled all over.
He wasn't kidding.
He really does what he says.
Chu Aotian felt even more aggrieved and couldn't help but miss the days when he and Chu Li were naked and innocent.
With red eyes and tears falling, he held Chu Li's hand tightly and choked:
"Ninth sister, you must be strong. It is better to live a miserable life than to die. As long as you are alive, there is hope."
"When Master Jiang left, he hoped that we would be fine. We must strive to do well!"
"Ninth sister..."
Chu Aotian sobbed as he talked about the past. Chu Yeli stayed by his side, staring at Chu Li's face, trying to find any sign of awakening from this sleeping face.
However, the result disappointed him greatly.
Her deep sleep was very much like death, and the unknown fear was like the cold ice in winter, devouring his heart bit by bit.
He started to panic.
He began to feel at a loss.
If I continue sleeping like this, even if I still have a breath left, I will starve to death even if I am hungry.
"Xiao Jiu, since you are so cruel that you don't want to wake up and make me worry, then from now on, Chu Aotian will be like you, not eating or drinking until you wake up!"
Chu Aotian: “?”
no.
Why should his food be withheld?
Man is iron and food is steel. If you don't eat for a meal, you will feel hungry.
"If anything happens to you, I will send him down to accompany you immediately so you won't be alone."
"?"
No!
Please stop your madness!
"Ninth sister, help me! Wake up and save my life!"
